Non-HIV talaromycosis: Radiological and clinical analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
To investigate the characteristics of spiral computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) and clinical manifestations of talaromycosis to improve the diagnostic level and deepen its recognition in radiology.Radiological, clinical, and pathological manifestations of 15 patients of non-HIV talaromycosis confirmed by bronchofiberscope lung biopsy and/or abscess puncture fluid culture and/or blood culture and/or sputum culture were analyzed retrospectively. All patients underwent chest CT, among them, six had a brain MRI, and six had a PET/CT scan before treatment.On plain CT scan, there were multiple patches and massive consolidation in 6 patients, multiple patchy consolidations and patchy ground-glass opacities in 3 patients, solitary or multiple nodules and masses in 3 patients, multiple cavities and small nodules in 3 patients. Multiple lymphadenectasis appeared in bilateral hila, mediastinum, and neck in 10 patients. In contrast CT scan, the parenchyma of the lesions had a slight enhancement in 10 patients, moderate enhancement in 3 patients, obvious enhancement in 2 patients. Seven cases had bone destruction and hyperplasia, cranial involvement in 1 patient and liver involvement in 3 patients, respectively. On PET/CT, five patients showed elevated standard uptake value (SUV).The radiological manifestations of non-HIV talaromycosis show multiple consolidations, ground-glass opacities, multiple nodules or masses in bilateral lungs, deep-seated enlarged lymph nodes and bone destruction in multiple systems. The final diagnosis should be based on the culture of talaromycosis.
